Romance Suspense

DEA agent Nick Archer lives his life surrounded by danger, and has sacrificed a lot for his career. Learning the hard way that relationships and his career do not mix, Nick is happy to be alone. But when he finds himself with a new partner of the canine variety, Nicks life will be turned upside down. Harley will become his best friend, and Harley's beautiful trainer will become far too important in his life. Jamie Chambers lives for her service dogs. Being a widow of a cop, Jamie has suffered greatly with her loss and knows she will never risk her heart again. But one look at sexy Nick Archer and he finds his way under her skin. With undeniable attraction, both Nick and Jamie are weary of pursuing anything more meaningful. Is love worth taking the plunge? And can two people with so much baggage find a way to make it work? AFTER LOVE by Kathy Clark is the first novel in her Austin Heroes series. With well developed characters and excellent detail, this romantic tale really grabbed my attention and kept me hooked from beginning to end. Packed with plenty of moments of suspense, intense chemistry and great humour, I highly recommend AFTER LOVE by Kathy Clark to all fans of romance.

SUMMARY

For romantic-suspense junkies and fans of Nora Roberts and Karen Robards, bestselling author Kathy Clark kicks off her Austin Heroes series with a pulse-pounding tale of two wounded souls tempted by a dangerous proposition: new love. DEA agent Nick Archer puts his life on the line every day. A former Marine, he fears nothing . . . except commitment. Nick has no trouble finding women eager to warm his bed, and no problem sending them on their way the morning after. Relationships don’t mix with risky careers, a fact Nick learned the hard way after his marriage fell apart. He’d go it alone if it weren’t for his new K-9 partner—and the stunning trainer who makes Nick sit up and take notice. Just like her service dogs, Jamie Chambers knows how to sniff out trouble. From the moment Nick swaggers into her kennel, she knows he’s heartbreak waiting to happen, and he wastes no time getting under her skin. Hell, he doesn’t even like dogs. As a cop’s widow, Jamie has felt the sting of loss in the line of duty, yet she recognizes something of her own pain in Nick’s smoldering gaze. Jamie knows there are no guarantees in life. But a moment of pleasure, however fleeting, holds the promise of forever—and for that, Jamie’s willing to take the plunge.
